Campus

Ringling College has a residential, self-contained campus, a setting that is rare among art and design colleges. It is a lush tropical landscape where the studios, classrooms, galleries and library are within a short walk to the residence halls, cafes, recreation & wellness center, and student life center. Come see for yourself.

We encourage potential students interested in attending Ringling College, as well as art teachers, guidance counselors and parents to visit our campus. Student-led tours and meetings with admissions counselors are available by appointment. To guarantee that someone will be available to welcome you, please follow the instructions below to arrange for a visit.

Campus tours are scheduled by appointment Monday through Friday at 9:30 AM and 1:30 PM. To participate in a group tour led by a student, and to schedule a meeting with an admissions counselor, please fill out an online prospective student campus tour request or call the Admissions Office at 800-255-7695 or 941-309-0195. We do our best to accommodate all visitors, but please keep in mind that some dates fill early due to heavy demand. Please wait until your appointment has been confirmed before finalizing travel arrangements.

On Wednesdays, limited studio classes are in session, so students might not be able to see classes in their major(s) of interest.

Please note that there are no classes in session on the following dates: March 7 - 13, 2015 (Spring Break); May 6 - August 16, 2015 (Summer Break). The 2015-16 Academic Year begins on August 17, 2015.

Offices are closed and tours are not scheduled on the following dates: May 11, 2015; May 25, 2015; and July 3, 2015.
